Dedication.
There is no way we can adequately express our appreciation to the
leaders and to the many members they have already registered with our
Association. We dedicate this directory, and the future of our USMA,
to them. Rising above politics, doubt and uncertainty, they have
expressed their deep belief in the ideals of American Martial Arts.
They have gone on the record in support of our USMA leadership.
Recoiling from moral corruption, they have stuck to their guns with
loyalty and love. They have set the example to all. They have inspired
our USMA national leaders, and have insured the survival of the moral
principles of the Martial Arts as we have known and practiced them for
over 50 years. Their courage and loyalty is a constant inspiration to
us. That is all we need, under God, to carry on.

This is only the beginning! We have
formed a Grand Alliance with many Martial Arts clubs and
organizations. This is the first time in American Martial Arts history
that any organization has offered services and benefits to the entire
American Martial Arts industry. Demographic studies show that there
are 50,000 Martial Arts schools in America, with at least 25 million
participants. We are a great and growing industry.

Our USMA is growing steadily. In fact,
we have outpaced the growth of any other organization we are aware of!
We have grown 400% faster than the
largest Judo organization in the country. This incredible growth has
been achieved because of YOUR dedication and loyalty. No matter how
large we grow, these first leaders, these precious few, will always
have a special place in our hearts.
